First of all, at the very least, the house where you want to watch "TV Japan" must have a "TV viewing cable" laid.


The residential area in my district is covered by Spectrum and AT&T cables and I only use

Spectrum's Internet connection.


I've heard that T-Mobile and other mobile connection companies are doing cable TV service these days, but

they should be using aerial signals, and even if the cable is not laid,

mobile （ Even if there is no cable, you should be able to get cable service wherever your cell phone ） is connected.


Either way, cable service is about $50/month for the first year, but goes up every year, and

you have to sign up for at least 3 years.

You can apply directly to the company and they will come and install it.
The basic price is ＄ 45, TV JAPAN $ 15, receiver ＄ 5, plus
taxes ＄ 70, you can quit anytime.
If you join internet and phone at the same time, you can get a discount.
I pay
78 a month $ for a sports package and a recording machine. Sometimes there are special offers to get a discount.

Thank you all.
Sorry for the delay in thanking you.
Today I contacted DIRECT TV of my mother's choice and
confirmed the contract.
It costs about $ 150 for the first time, but we signed up for $ 70 per month for a fixed fee, no change.

For some reason I can't write on TV, so … I'm writing on TV1, topical.

Thank you!!!

＞ monthly $ fixed price at 70, no fluctuation


that is how long it will last. It cannot be the same price forever.

It will go up with a bang in 6 months or a year at the earliest.

Did you sign a proper contract? If it was only verbal, did you make sure it was correct?

It is not too late.

1. How long will the current fee continue?

2. When will the rates go up, even if they don't tell us clearly?

3, The monthly charge should be automatically deducted from my bank account or credit card, but when can I cancel the contract?

Let's correct the etc.

I was looking at a magazine that a friend of mine got from a Japanese-Japanese market and saw this ad.

I would say for TV Japan alone it is ＄ 25 every month.
It's been the same amount for 17 years.
But that's if you get at least basic channels from the cable company.
I think most of them are women living in the US after the age of 45.
Everyone says "I can't live without TV Japan ！ anymore", even me 🙄
My husband watches sports programs, so since we got TV Japan
it's like we live separately on the first floor and the second floor. This is also something to think about.

＞ TV Japan After taking it, it sounds like they are living separately on the first and second floor


It kind of sounds like they are smiling, but on the contrary. ^^;

I didn't
comment on this case because it doesn't fit the example of Topix's mother.
My husband pays for cable, computer, phone, etc. every month, and I don't even think about it because I don't want to think about it, but the total is ＄ about 270 (Spectrum)
and he works remotely now, staring at two computers. ？ My husband is now working remotely, staring at two computers.
Don't worry, it doesn't apply at all to the example of Topy's mother.
I imagine it's probably about ＄ 70 with Basic plus
TV Japan as others have commented.

I wonder what kind of sports programs are available on TV Japan other than sumo wrestling.

I mistakenly commented that it includes the phone bill
inadvertently, I meant wifi.
The phone bill is not included in this amount.
My husband is an American, so he seems to watch various kinds of TV
I spend my time checking the news on ch5 every morning and evening, FCI Japanese broadcast in the morning and KCET cooking program in the morning
I watch TV Japan only in the evening. I only watch TV Japan at night. \I watch TV Japan only at night.

13, Tv japan is now ＄ 14, 99.
If you complain or quit and rejoin, it's $ 10 easier.
It's worth it because $ 120 cents a year. It's the same price if you don't do anything.
People who have been paying for a long time pay a higher price without knowing it.
Netflix is also once you stop, now $ 9.99.

I haven't looked at the details of the monthly bill, I'll ask my husband next time. Maybe it's going to be 14-99 ？
but maybe this is the cable company calling the shots for Tv Japan ？

In this day and age, 16 channels including NHk can be watched via internet for $100 a year, so why waste money on a system that can only watch NHK?
I think the same story went up a while ago.

＞ I'm sure all the people who live here appreciate TV shows illegally uploaded to the Internet.

Are you deliberately missing the point or are you seriously baffled? lol

Watching free TV shows uploaded to the Internet by a third party is Of course it's not illegal, but it's two illegal things because certain individuals charge a fee to watch and distribute copyright-violating TV shows with impunity.

Above all, the distributor knows it is illegal and distributes it for pocket money, so he/she cannot conduct business activities openly and it becomes a black market business in hiding all the time.

＃ 22Ignorant
Tv japan used to be like that
When I found it, it was not NHK only
I enjoy watching dramas from wow, NTV and all other Japanese TV stations. Most of the dramas that I can watch every month are very popular ones that are running at the same time as in Japan, and I am glued to the TV for 7-8 dramas a night.
I can also record the drama, which is very convenient, and replay the popular ones at night and midnight. I also enjoy music shows and movies.
Of course, there are cheaper ways to watch TV, but some of them are dangerous, and I gave up taking Sanchanra because I can't watch NHK.
